Messenger

Descripción

"Messenger continues R. T. Smith's exploration of the threshold between story and song. Employing a disciplined and echoing free verse, Smith touches the sources of emotion without losing his poems' extraordinary composure, offering coherence and order in service of the ecstatic note." "Smith weaves the language of Catholic faith with both American and Irish rural surroundings, providing the fuel for quiet allegories."--BOOK JACKET.
